A British BBC program "Material world" broadcast on 25th Feb 2010 suggested that the Spanish version of the Falkland islands "Las islas Malvinas" derives from an early Welsh colony on that archipelago who used the name St Malo. I could not find any supporting material, so simply note it here, in case anyone actually knows. The Wikipedia entry ascribes the name to Louis Antoine de Bougainville —Preceding unsigned comment added by Timpo (talkcontribs) 07:35, 26 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
